Right you are Dan! Another reason that it rocks is my new client. They just told me that my aircraft search target needs to be aimed a bit higher, “like PC12 higher…..” “WeeBeeSee…..”
Did a football feature shot for the editor this morning. There was a heavy fog with less than 1/4 mile visibility when I left the farm. Terrible driving conditions, but what a great big soft light it was!
My wife looked over my shoulder when I processed this one and told me how timely it was. She said it could have been taken in the 1940's, soooo...what the heck...

There’s a drawback to these high frame rate camera bodies. I just did a shutter count check on my first R5 and it came back telling me that my shutter is at 65% of its projected life. That is based on Canon’s projection of 150,000 clicks. I am fine with that, although it will most likely go way past that number, I’ll retire it when it gets close. One needs to keep a perspective on these things, my R5 paid for itself in the first two days that I owned it.
Last week I shot the first residential model in over two years. Between Covid, the red hot market and Pete’s supply chain issues, the powers that be were busy with other things and not focused on marketing. Fast forward to climbing interest rates and a tightening residential real estate climate, I have requests for five models between now and Christmas. The Texas market is still very strong, but they have awakened to the fact that they don’t have any recent imagery to sell with, all good news. There are few things, consistencies, that a business owner can hang his or her hat on, but there is a sweet spot somewhere between boom and bust where the demand for photographic imagery heats up. During boom it becomes less important, bust cycles see tightened budgets, but that period where clients realize that they are behind the power curve is a great wave to ride, it’s all about cycles.
One of my clients just told me that my photography, “mediocre” as it might be🤣 has been instrumental in helping them sell 10 billion dollars in residential real estate . Kind of boggles my mind. I should have shot on contingency!🤣
